MYSTERIOUS VOICES
When the big passenger ship Queen Mary in October 1942 were used as a troopship and went zigzag to avoid enemy submarines she ran into an escourting cruiser, HMS Curacao. The enormous ship of 84 000 ton went straight through the 4 200 ton ship Curacao. Over 300 sailors met Death in the ice cold water.
More than forty years later, when the old queen were laying at the docks as a tourist attraction in Long Beach, California, a timberman, by the name John Smith, reported he had heard voices and sounds of splashing water when he worked at the ship's bow. It was that part of the ship which had crashed into the side of the cruiser. Smith said he did not know about the accident during the war, when he first heard the noices.
William G. Roll, the famous parapsychologist, investigated the ship in 1988. At the bow Roll heard voices, which he could not find an explanation to. A tape recorder, which started when noices were heard, catched voiced and "a sound, sounding like running water". Roll meant he could not be certain if the sounds were an echo of the accident which had occured in 1942, but thought the phenomenon should be studied more.
